Why work for us

To be inspired…

In addition to having a workplace that is big on diversity and friendliness, there is nothing more inspiring than working with people who are passionate about what they do.

To make a difference…

Steer Davies Gleave believes in empowering its people and giving them opportunities to shine. In a recent staff survey, 80% of staff said that they felt they could make a difference in the company.

To gain from our independence…

As an independent company, owned by its past and present employees, we are able to focus on our own twin objectives:

Establishing and maintaining a strong commercial base for the company; and

Providing a positive, nurturing environment where all our staff can develop their skills and roles.

To be part of a winning team…

Needless to say, we think we’re doing pretty well. But don’t just take our word for it. In addition to winning several industry awards on projects we’ve worked on, we’ve been voted the 18th Best Company to Work For twice by the Sunday Times, and New Civil Engineer named us Consultant of the Year 2007.

To learn and develop…

Our people are our strongest asset so there is a natural emphasis on continual learning and development within our company. We support our employees’ personal and professional growth through periodic reviews, internal seminars, training courses and professional certifications.

And to enjoy a healthy work/life balance…

When our employees put a lot into their work, we think it’s only fair they get a lot out of it too. A list of specific benefits are available upon request.
